Smooth and voluminous open hihat sound with a defined chick. Wide dynamic spectrum with an outstanding warm character.

The top cymbal of a hihat is mainly responsible for the response and the sound development of the instrument. Best results are achieved with medium weight cymbals. The bottom cymbal is responsible for the definition when the hihat is played by foot pedal and also by the stick. The heavier the bottom, the faster its stick response and the more defined its chick sound. In order to achieve best possible results, a combination of medium weight top and heavy to extra heavy bottom cymbals are used.
